This has to be our guiding principle as we seek to<br \/>\nattract investment and create opportunities for our people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The President also used the occasion to challenge the private sector to<br \/>\nlead the charge in maximizing the nation&#8217;s gas resources.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the private sector can create a petrochemical hub that<br \/>\nwill resurrect the manufacturing industry and put the nation on the path<br \/>\nto increased self-sufficiency.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;As the world evolves, we owe our people the responsibility to prepare<br \/>\nthem for what the future holds. We, therefore, must be bold and fearless<br \/>\nand can no longer be incremental in our approach.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;Time is short, and our people&#8217;s zeal is strong and palpable.<br \/>\nInfrastructure development although long, tedious, and complex remains a<br \/>\ncardinal objective of our Administration&#8217;s drive towards ensuring a<br \/>\nstable, sustainable, and more prosperous future for our citizenry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8221;Today marks an important chapter in the history of our great Nation.<br \/>\nIt marks the day when our domestic natural gas pipeline networks; from<br \/>\nObiafu in Rivers State, Escravos in Delta State and Lekki in Lagos<br \/>\nState, are being connected through Kaduna to the Kano States thereby<br \/>\nenhancing national energy security, creating balanced development, and<br \/>\nfurther integrating our nation,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>The President commended the Government of the People&#8217;s Republic of<br \/>\nChina; the financiers the Bank of China and SINOSURE; and the two EPC<br \/>\nContractors (Brentex\/China Petroleum Pipeline Bureau-CPP Consortia and<br \/>\nOilserve\/China First Highway Engineering Company-CFHEC Consortia) for<br \/>\ntheir support to deliver the important project.<\/p>\n<p>He also congratulated the Ministry of Petroleum Resources, NNPC, and all<br \/>\nrelevant stakeholders on the historic and epoch-making occasion,<br \/>\ncommending the resilience of the team to deliver on the project despite<br \/>\nthe COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>The President appealed to Governors of Kogi, Niger, Kaduna, and the Kano<br \/>\nStates as well as the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory to<br \/>\nprovide the enabling environment and support for the project.<\/p>\n<p>In his remarks, Mallam Mele Kyari, Group Managing Director, NNPC,<br \/>\nexplained that the AKK gas pipeline project, which is part of the<br \/>\nTrans-Nigeria gas pipeline project, involves the establishment of a<br \/>\nconnecting gas pipeline network that will integrate the Northern region<br \/>\nof the country with the Niger Delta, Eastern and Western regions of the<br \/>\nCountry.<\/p>\n<p>He said the EPC contract for the 614km AKK gas pipeline project was<br \/>\nawarded at a total contract sum of US$2.592 billion to Messrs.
